And unlike his character, Chesney Brown, Sam Aston has managed to get the girl of his dreams, proposing to his partner of five years on Saturday.

Getting down on one knee in front of guests at a charity gold day, at the Worsley Park Marriott Hotel, the 23-year-old soap star surprised Briony Gardner with a ring on stage.

The romantic moment came as Sam hosted his annual charity golf event with Corrie pals Andy Whyment and Alan Halsall.

Briony shared a video of the magic moment on her Instagram page, and spoke of “floating in this bliss” after the proposal from her beau, who plays Corrie's Chesney.

She said: “2 hearts have now become 1 as Sam and I are... ENGAGED!! (How is it possible I can even say that out loud?!) [sic].”
